Hi,

The AR9287 initial calibration in ar9002_hw_init_cal() isn't ever
called because the Kite check (AR_SREV_9285_12_OR_LATER()) matches on
MACs versioned Kite and later.
Adrian this change looks logically correct. but as there were lot of
regwrites in the original path, I am not sure how this change will
effect the throughput especially in noisy environment
conditions/stress testing.

The Atheros newma code checks it is Kite as well as being Kite >= 1.2.

I don't currently have Linux ath9k on something with an AR9287 so I'd
appreciate it if this were verified by someone who has.

The patch is quite simple:
diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ar9002_calib.c
b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ar9002_calib.c
